A former employee of Pritchett Trucking Inc. killed himself after fatally shooting his former boss and a coworker and wounding two others, multiple media outlets have confirmed.

A news release from the Union County Sheriff’s Office said Marvin Pritchett was killed Saturday morning when Hubert Allen Jr. drove to several locations and shot the four men. The other three men were Allen’s former co-workers.
